Is this a proper ebook or one of those bullshit O'Reilly leaflets focused on a particular technology?
Sadly only in PDF format as far as I can tell.

#22Its an eBook, not a book. Even though I work in tech, I was excited that they were giving a way a print copy I could flick though easily, and bookmark, annotate or share. EBooks have some advantages, but I still prefer print.
You can just get it printed and bound. O'Reilly's PDFs are not protected or hindered any way to discourage printing.

You're joking but it's almost too accurate to be humorous. This is being foisted on us right now and it's giving me nearly crippling anxiety.
I absolutely loved the concept of containerization when I started working with it a few years ago. Docker provided such a perfect way to ensure my application would build and run correctly when I pushed things up to my servers.
Then came orchestration. Swarm was a bit slow to get out the door and is still buggy. K8s on the other hand shot past like a lightning bolt. While it evolved quickly, k8s has to be the one piece of software that I dread to work with the most. Setting up a cluster seems nearly impossible without compromising important features. Configuration is overly complex and difficult to discover. None of the (many) tools seem to do what I want.
In the end, I begrudgingly chose Docker Swarm because I was actually able to create a cluster that worked. Mind you, there are still truckloads of bugs that have sat gathering dust for years that I continue to run into. At least with this solution I'm somewhat productive.
May the heavens have mercy on your soul should you attempt any amount of networking in a cluster.

I generally use k8s. The updates come like a torrent, and it's impossible to stay on top of things unless it's your full time job. Every upgrade involves a lot of finger-crossing and hope that things won't break (the good news is, that generally it's fine).

Im glad its an eBook, not a book.
Since I work in tech, I am excited that its a eBook that I can search through easily rather than having to spend tons of time bookmarking and flipping through pages hoping to find what is relevant when I need it. Paper books have some novelty value but I much prefer the utility of full text search when its time to get something done.

Kubernetes is hard because its trying to solve a hard problem. Agreed that cluster management itself is hard but GKE has been somewhat nicer to use.
If you can convince your organization to use GKE (Google Kubernetes Engine), your life will become simpler. Power of Kubernetes with none (almost!) of the pain.

Step 2 in your comment reads like poetry.
The sheer length of the sentence and the variety in vocabulary creates a rising, racing energy that forces you to stop and smile before you get to the end.
Beautifully written! I’m going to save a copy for myself.
